We invite you to join us for an opening reception Jan. 26 at 5:00 pm in the Ford Atrium to welcome the Data as Art Exhibit. This year’s projects include two projects that are synbio focused and make use of the Addgene database.
Data as Art is a fall-term course co-taught by faculty from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) and Northwestern Engineering. In this course, students from both institutions work across multiple disciplines to engage in a critical dialogue about information visualization and to conduct collaborative research using data sets. The final projects represent data on a platform of visual art.
Data as Art culminated in an exhibition of the projects at SAIC’s LeRoy Neiman Center where the students’ work was on display Dec. 5-17. Now it is our turn to welcome the exhibition, which will be on display in Ford’s atrium for the next month. Please join us for the installation viewing accompanied by light refreshments.
If you can’t make it to the reception, the exhibit will be on display in the Ford Atrium for the next month.
